An ex-service man who needs medi cal or surgical treatment because of illness or injury contracted in the Army or Navy, can hereafter enter any army hospital. Public Health Service hospital, or local civilian ins titution or aanitorium, and have all hi expense paid by the government. Few soldiers or aailora seem to be aware of this privilege, which is theirs for the asking, and today the War Department instructed the entire personnel of the Office of the Assist ant to the Secretary of War, in charge of soldier employment and welfare i work, to bring this to the attention of . all such men. Lieut. Colonel Mathew C. Smith, of the General Staff, and head of the' Bureau, has issued a bulletin for nationwide distribution, which says: "Any discharged service man who is in need of medical treatment and feels that his illness is due to wounds or other disabilities received or ag gravated while in service, should at once see the nearest army hospital or local representative of the United States Public Health Service for an j examination. Addresses may be ascer- tained from the postmaster. The I American Red Cross representative and state or municipal health officer also are able to advise service men about their casea and should be con sulted. "If discharge or other papers show, ing that the disability was existing at the time of separation 'from service are available, they should be taken along, as they will be of help in mak ing a decision on the case. However, if these papers are not available the man should not hesitate to apply Such an applicant will be immediately placed under treatment pending the receipt of the necessary papers. "If there is no representative of the Health Service in the ex-soldier's home town and no army hospital at j hand, and it is possible for him to j travel, such traveling expenses, hos pital expenses and wages lost while I undergoing examination will be paid I by the government, should it be decid-I ed that treatment is necessary. I "On the other hand, if the physical j condition of the man makes it impos-1 sible for him to travel, he will be ex- j amined and treated at his home. In , special cases where it is found that a ' change of climate will be beneficial, ! patients will be sent to "specially de- j signated hospitals." i Mr 8, John Eakin .
